1 B S Zn Mn Mo Foliar Micronutrients for Broad Acre Crops Higher yield and better quality Balanced trace element supply for healthy crops Insurance against deficiencies of micronutrients Crop adapted nutrient ratio Optimal absorption from chelated nutrients

2 Nutrimix /Nutribor The Importance of Micronutrient Availability According to Liebig s Law of the minimum, any essential plant nutrient which is not in sufficient supply limits crop yield. Law of Minimum The element which is in shortest supply (in this case K) limits the yield. (J. v. Liebig ) Soil Conditions for Micronutrient Availability General Benefits of foliar plant nutrition Highly efficient nutrient application under adverse soil conditions (high or low ph, drought, wet conditions, light soils, low nutrients, etc.) Maximum exploitation of yield potential Optimal supplement to traditional soil fertilization Crop strengthening under stress situation (pest & diseases, extreme climatic conditions, etc.) Soil conditions Manganese Zinc Boron Copper Molybdenum ph > 7.0 ph < 5.5 very wet very dry high content of org. matter clay content > 20% sandy soils : very high deficiency : high deficiency : deficiency : very high availability : high availability : availability Knittel et al, 1999

3 Micronutrient Facts Brief key to deficiency symptoms Symptoms Symptoms appearing first on older leaves: Chlorosis starting from leaf tips Chlorosis mainly between veins (which remain green) Brownish, greyish, whitish spots (e.g. on cereals) Symptoms appearing first on younger leaves: Mottled yellow-green leaves with yellowish veins Mottled yellow-green leaves with yellowish veins Brownish black spots (e.g. on legumes, potatoes) Youngest leaf has white tip Youngest leaf is brownish or dead (e.g. on beet) Deficiency N Mg Mn S Fe Mn Cu B The COMPO EXPERT solution Nutrimix and Nutribor are fully water soluble micro element fertilizers with special emphasis on Cu, Mn, Zn and B As a liquid solution COMPO EXPERT offers Nutrimix fluid and Nutribor fluid for conveniance To improve foliar uptake the micronutrients are chelated in solution with EDTA Trace elements for agriculture Trace elements for agriculture Solid Liquid Nutrimix fluid Nutrimix Nutribor Nutribor fluid Nutrimix complete incl. Fe under high ph

4 Nutrimix Nutrimix is especially designed for a balanced nutrition of cereals. Product Composition Nutrient Nutrimix % Copper* 3.0 Manganese* 4.0 Molybdenum 0.04 Zinc* 3.0 Sulphur 15.0 Nitrogen 8.0 Foliar application: Recommendations Crop Number of applications per Application rate kg/ha growing period Wheat Winter Barley Spring Barley Oats Rye Triticale Rice * as Chelate of EDTA Trial results Nutrimix in Wheat Time of application Nutrimix kg/ha 120 Fungicides Fungicides Nutrimix Nutrimix 0.5 kg/ha dt/ha 6 dt/ha 4 dt/ha Yield in dt/ha Stages of development according BBCH Significant yield increases Nutrimix in official trials, even at high yield levels Nutrimix contributes to high yields under difficult growing conditions Tillering: improvement of tillers per plant and spikelet per spike = more yield Flag leaf: improvement of grain filling = more yield

5 Nutribor For Boron demanding crops (oil crops, sugar beets, cotton, etc.) and Boron deficient growing conditions (sandy soils, high ph, etc.) Product Composition Nutrient Nutribor % Boron 0.8 Manganese* 1.0 Molybdenum 0.04 Zinc* 0.1 Magnesium 5.0 Sulphur 12.0 Foliar application: Recommendations Crop Number of applications per growing period Application rate kg/ha Oil-Seed Rape Sugar Beets Sun-Flower Maize Potatoe Cotton Tobacco Sugar Cane Nitrogen 6.0 * as Chelate of EDTA Trial results Nutribor in all results in % 110 Oil-Seed Rape Sugar Beet (gross yield) Time of application Nutribor 2 3 kg/ha Nutribor 2 3 kg/ha autum spring 80 without foliar application 2 x 3 kg/ha Nutribor without foliar application 2 x 3 kg/ha Nutribor Stages of development according BBCH Significant yield increases in various scientific trials Also better quality of oil seed rape and sugar beets Nutribor also prevents crops from latent deficiencies In winter oil seed rape 2 3 applications are required Excellent compatibility with common plant protection products
